including, without limitation, the Debtor's right to receive payments
for goods and other products sold or leased or for services rendered,
whether or not earned by performance or recognized or billed by the
Debtor.

security interest in all such after acquired assets and all parts, accessories,
attachments, additions, replacements, accessions, substitutions, increases,

2. Indebtedness Secured. The borrowing relationship between the Debtor
and the Secured Party may be a continuing one and may include numerous types of
extensions of credit, loans, overdraft payments or advances made directly or
indirectly to or for the benefit of the Debtor. Accordingly, this Agreement and
the Security Interest created by it secures payment of all obligations of any
kind owing by the Debtor to the Secured Party (the "Indebtedness"). The
Indebtedness includes, without limitation, those obligations of the Debtor
which: (a) are now existing or hereafter incurred; (b) are direct or indirect;
or (c) arise from loans, guaranties, endorsements, letters of credit,
reimbursement agreements, drafts, acceptances or otherwise. The Indebtedness
may be: (a) related or unrelated to the extension of credit contemplated in
that certain Amended and Restated Loan Agreement, dated as of the date hereof
between the Debtor and the Secured Party (as amended or restated from time to
time, the "Loan Agreement"), or any extensions, renewal or modifications
thereof; (b) of the same or a different class as the primary obligation; and
(c) from time to time reduced or extinguished and thereafter increased or
re-incurred. The Indebtedness specifically includes, without limitation, any
sums advanced and any expenses or obligations incurred by the Secured Party
pursuant to this Agreement or any other agreement concerning, evidencing or
securing obligations of the Debtor to the Secured Party and any liabilities of
the Debtor to the Secured Party arising from any sources whatsoever.

(g) The amount represented by the Debtor to the Secured Party as
owing by each Account Debtor or by all Account Debtors is the correct

Secured Party, time being of the essence (subject, however, to any
applicable notice and cure periods); (iii) material falsity in any

Collateral (including, without limitation, the Secured Party's receipt
of any notice from a lessor of real property where collateral is
located indicating that the lease will be terminated prior to its
scheduled termination date) (except, however, that the relocation of
the Debtor's principal offices to Jacksonville, Florida shall not be
deemed an Event of Default hereunder or under any other Loan

(b) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Secured Party
may exercise such remedies and rights as are available hereunder,
under the Loan Agreement or otherwise (including without limitation,
acceleration of the Indebtedness or any part thereof).
(c) Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Secured
Party's rights with respect to the Collateral shall be those of a
secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code and any other
applicable law in effect from time to time. The Secured Party shall
also have any additional rights granted
5
herein and in any other agreement now or hereafter in effect between
the Debtor and the Secured Party. If requested by the Secured Party
after the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Debtor will assemble
the Collateral and make it available to the Secured Party at a place
to be designated by the Secured Party.
(d) The Debtor agrees that any notice by the Secured Party of the
sale or disposition of the Collateral or any other intended action
hereunder, whether required by the Uniform Commercial Code or
otherwise, shall constitute reasonable notice to the Debtor if the
notice is mailed by regular or certified mail, postage prepaid, at
least five days before the action to the Debtor's address as specified
in this Agreement or to any other address which the Debtor has
specified in writing to the Secured Party as the address to which
notices shall be given to the Debtor.
(e) The Debtor shall pay all costs and expenses incurred by the
Secured Party in enforcing this Agreement, realizing upon any

extent of the Debtor's liability for repayment of any of the
Indebtedness, shall be liable for any deficiencies in the event the
proceeds of disposition of the Collateral do not satisfy the
Indebtedness in full. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to
require the Secured Party to proceed against the Collateral or any
part thereof before or as a condition to the pursuit of any of its
other rights and remedies in respect of the Indebtedness.
7. Miscellaneous.
(a) The Debtor authorizes the Secured Party at the Debtor's
expense to file any financing statements relating to the Collateral
(without the Debtor's signature thereon) which the Secured Party deems
appropriate and the Debtor irrevocably appoints the Secured Party as
the Debtor's attorney-in-fact to execute any such financing statements
in the Debtor's name and to perform all other acts which the Secured
Party deems appropriate to perfect and to continue perfection of the
Security Interest.
(b) The Debtor hereby irrevocably consents to any act by the
Secured Party or its agents in entering upon any premises for the
purposes of either (i) inspecting the Collateral or (ii) taking
possession of the Collateral after any Event of Default in any
commercially reasonable manner; and the Debtor hereby waives its right
to assert against the Secured Party or its agents any claim based upon
trespass or any similar cause
6
of action for entering upon any premises where the Collateral may be
located.
(c) The Debtor authorizes the Secured Party to collect and apply
against the Indebtedness any refund of insurance premiums or any
insurance proceeds payable on account of the loss or damage to any of
the Collateral and appoints the Secured Party as the Debtor's
attorney-in-fact to endorse any check or draft representing such
proceeds or refund.
(d) Upon the Debtor's failure to perform any of its duties
hereunder, the Secured Party may, but it shall not be obligated to,
perform any of the duties and the Debtor shall forthwith upon demand
reimburse the Secured Party for any expenses incurred by the Secured
Party in so doing.
(e) No delay or omission by the Secured Party in exercising any
right hereunder or with respect to any Indebtedness shall operate as a
waiver of that or any other right, and no single or partial exercise
of any right shall preclude the Secured Party from any other or
further exercise of the right or the exercise of any other right or
remedy. The Secured Party may cure any Event of Default by the Debtor
in any reasonable manner without waiving the Event of Default so cured
and without waiving any other prior or subsequent Event of Default by
the Debtor. All rights and remedies of the Secured Party under this
Agreement and under the Uniform Commercial Code shall be deemed
cumulative.
(f) The Secured Party shall exercise reasonable care in the
custody and preservation of the Collateral to the extent required by
law and it shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care if it
takes such action for that purpose as the Debtor shall reasonably
request in writing; however, no omission to do any act not requested
by the Debtor shall be deemed a failure to exercise reasonable care
and no omission to comply with any requests by the Debtor shall of
itself be deemed a failure to exercise reasonable care. The Secured
Party shall have no obligation to take and the Debtor shall have the
sole responsibility for taking any steps to preserve rights against
all prior parties to any instrument or chattel paper in the Secured
Party's possession as Collateral or as proceeds of the Collateral. The
Debtor waives notice of dishonor and protest of any instrument
constituting Collateral at any time held by the Secured Party on which
the Debtor is in any way liable and waives notice of any other action
taken by the Secured Party.
(g) After the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Secured
Party may notify any Account Debtor of the Security Interest and may
also direct such Account Debtor to make all payments on the Collateral
to the Secured Party. All payments
7
on and other proceeds from the Collateral received by the Secured
Party directly or from the Debtor shall be applied to the Indebtedness
in such order and manner and at such time as the Secured Party shall
in its sole discretion determine. Unless the Secured Party notifies
the Debtor in writing that it dispenses with one or more of the
following requirements, any payments on or other proceeds of the
Collateral received by the Debtor after notification to any Account
Debtor in accordance with the terms hereof shall be held by the Debtor
in trust for the Secured Party in the same medium in which received,
shall not be commingled with any assets of the Debtor and shall be
turned over to the Secured Party not later than the next business day
following the day of their receipt. The Debtor shall also promptly
notify the Secured Party of the return to or repossession by the
Debtor of goods underlying any Collateral.
(h) The Debtor authorizes the Secured Party without affecting the
Debtor's obligations hereunder from time to time (i) to take from any
party and hold collateral (other than the Collateral) for the payment
of the Indebtedness or any part thereof, and to exchange, enforce or
release such collateral or any part thereof, (ii) to accept and hold
the endorsement or guaranty of payment of the Indebtedness or any part
thereof and to release or substitute any such endorser or guarantor or
any party who has given any security interest in any collateral as
security for the payment of the Indebtedness or any part thereof or
any party in any way obligated to pay the Indebtedness or any part
thereof; and (iii) upon the occurrence of any Event of Default to
direct the manner of the disposition of the Collateral and any other
collateral and the enforcement of any endorsements or guaranties
relating to the Indebtedness or any part thereof as the Secured Party
in its sole discretion may determine.
(i) The Secured Party may demand, collect and xxx for all
proceeds (either in the Debtor's name or the Secured Party's name at
the Secured Party's option), with the right to enforce, compromise,
settle or discharge any proceeds. The Debtor irrevocably appoints the
Secured Party as the Debtor's attorney-in-fact to endorse the Debtor's
name on all checks, commercial paper and other instruments pertaining
to the proceeds before or after the occurrence of an Event of Default.
(j) The rights and benefits of the Secured Party under this
Agreement shall, if the Secured Party agrees, inure to any party
acquiring an interest in the Indebtedness or any part thereof.
8
(k) The terms "Secured Party" and "Debtor" as used in this
Agreement include the heirs, personal representatives and successors
or assigns of those parties.
(l) If more than one Debtor executes this Agreement, the term
"Debtor" includes each of the Debtors as well as all of them, and
their obligations under this Agreement shall be joint and several.
(m) This Agreement may not be modified or amended nor shall any
provision of it be waived except in writing signed by the Debtor and
by an authorized officer of the Secured Party.
(n) This Agreement shall be construed under the Florida Uniform
Commercial Code and any other applicable laws in effect from time to
time.
(o) This Agreement is a continuing agreement which shall remain
in force until the last to occur of: (i) the payment in full of all
Indebtedness; (ii) the termination of all agreements or obligations
(whether or not conditional) of the Secured Party to extend credit to
the Debtor; and (iii) the termination of the Loan Agreement.
8. Restated Agreement. This Agreement amends, restates, replaces and
supersedes that certain Security Agreement dated November 14, 1996, executed by
the Debtor in favor of the Secured Party.
9. Waiver. IF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT SHOULD OCCUR, THE DEBTOR WAIVES, TO
THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT THE DEBTOR MAY HAVE TO NOTICE
AND A HEARING BEFORE THE SECURED PARTY TAKES POSSESSION OF THE COLLATERAL BY
SELF-HELP, REPLEVIN, ATTACHMENT, SETOFF OR OTHERWISE.
